You can't change it in Messenger Plus!...

If chatlogs are the problem, then the only thing you can do is to either:
- Scan the PC's for chatlogs and delete them (after the user has left, or before someone starts using a PC).
- Use a HDD image, and copy/restore that to the HDD everytime a new session/user starts (this is done in many cybercafe's). This ensures each user starts with a clean, properly set up computer. This also eliminates other misconfigurations or messed up PC's by the user (and also eliminates that some malicious person install stuff on another PC so he can "watch over it" or look things up after the user has left).


PS: Even if you could change it in Messenger Plus!, the malicious person who wants to abuse such things would always be able to alter the registry (or if not admin: by other means) anyways. And this doesn't go only for Plus!, but for MSN Messenger itself; heck for every program which is run on the PC. So hiding such things in Plus! wouldn't solve that...
